Friday kicks off the Best Lollapalooza Ever as VH1 and tens of thousands of fans congregate in Chicago for three days of live music, food trucks, and hashtags. That’s right, your favorite music channel will be on site all weekend to make sure that everyone has the best time possible. Whether you want to tweet, listen to live music or make some GIFs, we have you covered.
Socialize
If you are at the festival, be sure to get the full Lollapalooza experience by checking out the our social media wall. VH1 will be stationed near The Grove stage, which will host Lana Del Rey on opening night. There fans can check out what everyone is chatting about. A 10′ x 17′ screen will serve as the festival’s social media hub and display Tweets, Instagram pics from bands, artists, @Lollapalooza, @VH1 and the fans. Find us out on the map!
Be sure to tweet at @VH1Music or use the hashtag, #BestLollaEver, to make it on the wall.
GIF Yourself
When you stop by the VH1 social media wall, you will have a chance to jump in the GIF booth. Bosco, creator of our lovely, fun booths, will help you email and share the GIFs after you and your friends made the perfect one.
Listen
If you are still not sure who to check out this weekend, VH1 recommends St. Lucia and Emeli Sande, both of which are part of an exclusive line-up at VH1’s kick off event on Friday night. If you aren’t familiar with either act, we threw together a playlist for quick listening.
